The chemistry department here at Bath are celebrating 25 years of being in our new building! Past and present students and staff should come by for a fun day on 12th September with loads of great talks, food and maybe even a performance by the department band!

Happy Friday! Chuffed to see this work out in @rscmechanochem.rsc.org. Very thankful for all of the hard work put in for this paper, especially by Laura who helped to kickstart this mechanochemical venture.

Mechanochemically Micronised Na/NaCl; a Superfine Reductant
A free-flowing, homogeneous and non-pyrophoric powder of Na/NaCl is prepared via planetary ball-milling. The mechanochemically micronised Na/NaCl serves as a highly activated source of sodium and was ...

Gina Rai's work in collaboration with GSK, @beckylgreenaway.bsky.social, and Phil Miller on the mechanism of Pd catalysed carbonylation of aryl bromides with CO/H2 is now published in ACS Catalysis. Here is the link: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...
Combined Kinetic and Computational Analysis of the Palladium-Catalyzed Formylation of Aryl Bromides
Aryl aldehydes are key synthetic intermediates in the manufacturing of active pharmaceutical ingredients. They are generated on scale (>1000 kg) through the palladium-catalyzed formylation of aryl bro...

It seems Imogen's excellent paper is now up in its typeset form. Some really impressive work from her to get some great crystal structures and decoding some pretty complex NMR mixtures, and Michey doing the calcs here. Great work! We need more #MainGroupChem on #Chemsky

Happy to see our latest paper out in @inorganics_MDPI as part of the bulky ligands special issue. A nice addition to o-carboranyls.

Oxidative Addition to Group 1 (K, Rb, Cs) Alumanyl Anions as a Route to o-Carboranyl (hydrido)aluminates
The kinetic stability provided by the sterically demanding {SiNDipp}2− dianion (SiNDipp = {CH2SiMe2NDipp}2; Dipp = 2,6-i-Pr2C6H3) is intrinsic to the isolation of not only the group 1 alumanyl reagent...

hello world.

We’ve got potential PhD funding (part of an internal competition) in the group to look at designing and studying new heteromultimetallic catalysts for CO2 reduction: tinyurl.com/HetMetCO2
